This works. It fades the label to invisibility.

  label.alpha = 1.0;
  [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
  [UIView setAnimationDuration:2.5];
  label.alpha = 0;
  [UIView commitAnimations];


and so does this,

  label.alpha = 1.0;
  [UIView animateWithDuration:2.5 animations:^{label.alpha = 0.0;} ];


The documentation says the latter is now preferred and does the same thing as 
the former. In particular, both will
start a separate thread for the animation.

My problem is that the second method seems to block the main thread. While it 
is acting I cannot use any of the controls on the screen. The first method lets 
me do what I wish as it proceeds.


Anyone have advice?

thanks,

David
